More Homage to Rothko in Autumn


The famous Modernist artist Mark Rothko would never paint this  -  he'd consider the autumn leaves as trite and obvious. Even now snooty art critics would reject something with autumn leaves as not abstract enough, maybe. But with Photoshop at hand I can autumn leaf all I want, experimenting with colors as pure as Modernity. And it only takes an hour or so! I wonder what Rothko would have said about the use of computer and software as a tool. This is only a sketch and I'm just filling in the spaces.
